  Sorry, your question is not very clear.  Gcc always generates
assembly code, that's why it needs a separate assembler to work.  Gcc 
uses relative address instructions either when generating position
independent code or whenever else it is appropriate, but it doesn't have
anything to do with debugging.  So you could use any or even all of the
three options I've listed above.  If that's not enough to solve your
problem, please try and explain it some more.

  cheers,
